An Obscene Darkey Gets a Merlted
Beating.


Beating.
A fight occurred near Newton alley,
on North Flores street, yesterday after
noon, between q street car driver named
Sweeney and a muIlattO barber, Louis
Chapman, In which Mr.. Il. Hart took a
hand. From statements Of witnesses
the affair occurred as follows: The
driver, Sweeney, is a mere boy, IL years
old, son Of WIN. Sweeney, the old su.
perlntendent OF the avenue e line OF
street cars. He collected fare yesterday
and drove No. IA OF the North Flores
street car line, and going to the
springs with load Of passengers, or
men and 4 or ladies. Chapman, who
was very drunk, refused to pay his fare.
and cursed the boy villainOusly, using
very foul language, in total disregard OF
the ladies' presence. The car was
stopped 1T Kinsbury street to let the Ia
dies escape, and the boy attempted to
put Chapman of the car. Chapman
knocked tho boy off, and taking the iron
brake handle threw it and struck the
boy In the back with it. The boy tried
to pick it up, when Chapman again took
IL away and was beginning to beat him.
When Mr.. +. Hart saw that Chapman
WAS more than a match for the driver
he interfered, knocking Chapman down
with the other brake handle as he was
chasing the boy. Chapman arose and
made for Hart, but was knocked down
again; this time little harder than be-
fore. The boy then got his brake handle
and the oar again proceeded on its way,
leaving Chapman TO get to town. He
reported the matter to the police, and
they took steps to investigate the truth
OF his version Of it, but finding he was
the aggressOr all the time and knowing
his reputation, they did not arrest any
body. Chapman will be arrested today
on a charge Of aggravated assault and
battery on the boy.
